Help Father of 5 With Cancer Battle

Donation protected
I am starting this go fund me campaign for my 39 year old uncle Edward York on behalf of his family and friends, who love him so dearly, to help with his battle against cancer and the costs associated with it.

Earlier this year, Eddie was diagnosed with Stage 4 Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer. He has undergone 3 surgeries, chemo infusions, and immunotherapy treatments to fight the cancer since his diagnosis. Early on, the prognosis looked very bleak. By the grace of God, he is responding well to treatments, but is having another surgery later this month to remove part or possibly all of his right lung to, hopefully, eliminate the source of the cancer. A major surgery like this has a slow and rough recovery. He has had to take a lot of time off work and unfortunately, his fiancé's income is not quite enough to cover their house payments, bills, and food for the family. Eddie is a father of 5, and his children need him to make it through this! This man loves his kids and his fiancé more than anything in the world, and nothing in this world could replace him in their lives, or ours. Eddie is being treated at the Huntsman Cancer Institute in Salt Lake City, UT, but lives out of state. The travel, lodging, and especially medical bills, have become too much, and will only get worse as he will once again be unable to work as he recovers from this major surgery.  

Please, if you can find it in your heart to help, please share this with anyone and everyone, and if you’re able, any donation helps! Eddie is one of the kindest and most selfless human beings you could find on this Earth. He has dedicated the last 19 years of his life to raising and loving and taking amazing care of his children, and has given his family so much, done so much for all of us. Anyone who knows Eddie knows he’s the kind of person that would go out of his way just to make you smile. Please help us give back to him in a way that will help him and his family through this most stressful time in their lives! Even if you can’t donate, sharing this post might reach others that can, and we would appreciate it more than we have words for! If you can’t do either, we would gladly accept your prayers, good energies, or any nice thoughts to send his way, because I believe that always helps! Thank you so much for looking at our campaign and please share, share, share!! Sharing is caring, let's show this family that we care!!
